Hey, first CP thread here; let me know if I'm doing it wrong. I've procured a new Pre-Cursa frameset 58cm because, well, to be honest, they're fucking cheap. Consummately crap photo for courtesy's sake:
After crashing and totalling my Fort Track.Aero, I've been looking to replace it with something equally fun and cool, but I have got bored of searching to be fair.
I'm currently running an old Condor touring frame fixed (which I will be putting gears on and will start another thread for that) so have some parts that I will transpose (wheels mainly). **Not really in love with the Dolan decals so will be getting some customs done just for a bit of differentiation. Would like to have a crack at an entire DIY job on the paintwork but I haven't got the time or money, but that's a bit by-the-by.
So I have:
Frameset ((frame, forks, seatpost, seatclamp and headset) black)
Wheels ((front Halo Aerorage & rear HplusSon Eero laced to Halo hub) black)
48t Silver Omniums and BB
Izumi chain
15T / 17t sprockets (will be 48 x 17 for daily biz n shiz) and BLB lockring (black) "whatevs"
Nitto B125's (Black)
However, I'm still undecided on cockpit and saddle. Considering Thomson stem and seatpost, although I do have a suitable stem & seatpost already, in order to get it rolling.
Anyway, that's where I'm at with it so far. Suggestions welcome.
**Anyone have any recommendations for removing the original decals? Cheers.
